Perfect Beach Access, Comfortable Beds, Great Beach Trip with Friends

We stayed in Crystal Villas on a ground level unit and had a fabulous trip, love the close proximity to the beach, great location close to Crystal Beach area, walking distance to Camille's, one of our favorites. Master bedroom mattress slept like a dream. Only reason for giving 4 stars is that the condo could use some updates in the main living/kitchen area.

I’m not someone who ever writes reviews, never complains about hotels, but this location was bad enough that I needed to share it. I want to start off by saying the staff was friendly, accommodating, and understanding of our situation. My girlfriend and I booked this location based on the photos, and I just want to stress that they do not match the actual rooms at all.

A great 4 days in Destin, with perfect weather and great ocean views from our patio. I’ve stayed here twice. It’s always so clean and well appointed. No surprises, all that we needed, close to Publix and shopping. Can’t wait to return. Highly recommend!

Relaxing stay on the Beach

We have never been to Destin and this beach is outstanding! The condo was clean although I was a bit unsure about possible cockroaches never saw one! It is a little outdated but the bed was comfortable shower gel was empty, It had a musty smell but I happened to have a room spray, may be from the old carpet in the bedroom.

Nice Layout, But Needs Improvement

The condo has a nice layout, but there were a few issues that made our stay less enjoyable. We saw cockroaches in different parts of the unit, which made us uncomfortable. The master bedroom stayed quite hot, even with the AC on, and the hallway bed didn’t get much air either, so sleeping was tough. There were also some cleanliness concerns — the bed didn’t feel very clean, and we noticed stains on the chair and sofa bed that were hard to ignore. With some improvements to the cleaning and cooling, this place could be much more comfortable for guests.

Perfect location

We loved the location. It was close to everything in the community, the beach access was wonderful, the view was great, pool was outside the door and it was quiet at night. The beds were comfortable too! The door could probably use a new latch, it seemed a little loose. We would definitely stay again!

Wonderful location

We very much enjoyed our stay in Crystal Villas. The location was absolutely perfect, right on the ocean, close to all the shops and stores and not far from Navarre and Pensacola. The condo was beautiful however we did a counter several small cockroaches and some ants in the kitchen. Overall we had a great stay and you come back again!

air vents dust and dirt all over, floor tile grout nasty, comfortable king bed.

The air vents in the ceiling are full of dust (hanging out) and dirty. Very nasty. Roaches can easily come in thru doorway since there’s no weather stripping to prevent it. Large roaches. Grout in floor tiles super dirty. Carpet very worn out and dirty. Bed very comfortable.

Paradise Lookoout

Our family vacation at Paradise Lookout was truly paradise! The home is so beautiful! The beach was incredible with the white sugary sand and the water was such a clear emerald green that you could see everything. The neighborhood had an issue with internet service and a power outage and our host, Lisa, was so quick to help resolve the issues. She was so easy to communicate with and provided us with some amazing treats. This home is a wonderful place to bring families together to reminisce about the past and to create new memories to hold close to your heart forever!

Miserable experience with Vacasa

When we arrived at 4 p.m. on Thursday, July 17, and entered the unit, it was very hot and uncomfortable. The thermostat did not work at all … nothing appeared on the thermostat display.We ended up having to spend more money the stay in a hotel Thursday and Friday nights, it was so hot in this unit.And I tried to resolve the issue. Over two days, I texted 7 times with no resolution. I also called on Friday morning, and someone said they would let the local property manager know.Only because I got lucky and saw a person leaving a vehicle marked Vacasa in the parking lot later Friday morning did we get some resolution. This Vacasa employee had no idea the air conditioning did not work so he called his supervisor. The supervisor asked “Is A1 our unit?” Clearly, Vacasa needs to work on everyone’s communication skills.A couple of hours later an AC repairman came to fix the air conditioning and said that the AC in the two units above us was not working either. The repairman also said that he was on the property Friday night and would have fixed our AC if he had been aware of the issue.The unit was still too warm to sleep in on Friday night.I cannot in good conscious recommend using Vacasa ever again. While I was able to reach someone by text and by phone, they simply said they’d pass along the message … and then we heard nothing.Other issues: ants in the bathroom, and one of the toilets was unusable because the toilet bowl would not refill.
